Jungle trek FAMILY 2 days Package

This trek is suitable for people who do not want to walk a lot but still want to experience an overnight stay in a hill tribe village. Ideal for families with children. No elephant riding here.

Day 1

Start of our two day trek. Drive towards Mae Wang where we visit a local market. Lunch in a Shan village, after that we visit the local school. Then our trek starts to a Karen Village. During the trek there will be hardly any flat parts. All the paths are used by the local people. Sometimes the path is overgrown and the guide has to use his machete. We walk through dense jungle, open areas, plantations of the hill tribes and sometimes along or through rivers. If you want you can hire a porter to carry your luggage. At the end of the afternoon you will arrive in the village. We advise to make your sleeping place before it is dark because in many villages there is still no electricity. The guide will start preparing dinner. You will be surprised about the tasteful meals in this primitive surroundings. It is nice to walk through the village and try to communicate with the people. After dinner everybody sits with the host family and a lot of stories will be told by hands and feet. Sometimes we can make a campfire for you and maybe there is somebody in the village with a guitar. Everybody sleeps early because the villagers get up at sunrise. We spend the night in the Karen village. See the Karen tribe who came to settle in Thailand from Burma. Accommodation in a hill tribe house.

Day 2

Continue our trek and meet our transport and drive to the start of the rafting trip. After lunch board the rafts for a 1hr trip down the river.. Drive back to Chiang Mai.

Note: If you do not like to walk or like to walk shorter we can arrange that by using the car more. You will still see the same villages
